日本にいる家族と世界中にいる友達と繋がっていたい想いから始まったブログ。私の日々の想いをつらづらと記していこうと思います。 In the hope of staying in touch with my family in Japan and my friends all over the world, this blog was created.
A part of the show "Dhvani" that was performed at Maui Art & Cultural Center (MACC) this past June was recently uploaded to YouTube, so I would like to share them with you. (A more detailed journal entry about the show can be read here.)
It's been about a half year since we had the show, and as I watch these videos, there are many points where I think to myself, "Oh, I could change that." "I should do that differently next time." Also, I think of all the people who created this stage together and feel a deep gratitude for giving such a wonderful opportunity to me who is still a "green tomato" to be on the stage with them. Thank you very much.
This particular dance piece has a story line; however, I would like you to freely interpret it in your own way. If you are interested in our plot, please feel free to read below.
The Plot: A soul who was always with the Source loses its connection to the Source after it was distracted by the worldly desire. However, the beauty of the materialism does not last long. The soul being left alone finally realizes that it is no longer with the Source and gets confused. Then, it gets fierce thinking that the Source abandoned it. After struggles, it comes to a realization that the Source was with it always and dissolves back into the Source peacefully.
